What's for dinner? (the southern edition)
I should preface this by saying that my mom is an amazing cook, so this is not meant to misrepresent her incredible southern cooking skills.
Me: hey mom, what are we doing for dinner tonight?
Becca: i don't know, what sounds good?
Me: vegetables or something? Preferably something fresh and green. I feel like I've eaten nothing but bread and fried things.
Becca: I can toast you some cheese on an english muffin, or we have pizza or cheese dip in the fridge.
Me: did you hear anything I just said?
Becca: well I don't know?! Anyway, aren't you getting one of those latte things at Starbucks right now anyway?
Me: that's not dinner. You know what? Never mind.
